Lady Winter Rose Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 How long it took you to remember how to spell Cersei's name? Do you know how Tommen's wife's name is spelled? Do you know how to spell Stannis daughter's name?I need some time to remember how some character's name are spelled, but I manage to learn. (Still have problems spelling Quburn's name (is that right?).)What about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Winters Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's only the Essosi names I have no idea how to spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Greg of House House Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's Qyburn. I say it like "Ky-burn" (as in Kyle).Essosi names I don't even bother.The worst is people always think Jaime is called Jamie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mladen Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's only the Essosi names I have no idea how to spell.This... I write Hizdarh, and I am totally clueless whether it;s correct... As for the others, I don't care...As for Westerosi, I can easily spell the most of the character names, locations etc. It's not that difficult, and English is my 3rd language.

Queen Elsa Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I misspelled R'hllor several times. Sometimes I'm confused where to put ' or if I should put the o after the R or after the h. Also, I'm not even sure how to really pronounce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Mac Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I can basically spell all the names. The most awkard to actually type for me is Kraznys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm not even sure how to really pronounce it.I had no idea how to pronouce R'hllor until I played a little of the computer RPG. I hope they're right. There I learned Red Priests also have worldwide teleconference skills (joking, the game is actually entertaining even if it's a little cheap).Now I have the urge to look for a YT video where they say R'hllor in the TV show.

RedShirt47 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Because I listened to the audio books I do struggle with some of them. My first post here recently I spelt Pycelle wrongly (missing the last letter).I do pick up on the names in the forums though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Those dudes in Mereen. No idea how to pronounce let alone spell those names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Glokta Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The Westerosi names are no problem, but those guys and gals from Essos... especially the Meereenese... (Hizdar whatshisface and so on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morienthar Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's Hizdahr.I some times misspell R'hllor,I put two o's instead of l's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sordelor Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I don't have any problems with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozentree Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 If you actually read the books rather than listening to audio books and/or watching the show it is not that hard. Except those dudes from Slaver's bay. It is hard to even remember them, if nightmares had names, it'd be them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering getting that just for the story, but i heard the game was pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfell Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Dany's husband is a bitch to spell, hence he is forever "Dany's husband" to me. Most of the others I'm OK with except where there are characters with really similar names like Daven Lannister and Devan Seaworth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayard Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Yeah, no problem with the names.... not even with the Meereenese ones. Sure, like everyone else I have a problem with some people from Essos, but that's because I don't even remember them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sansa of the Many Surnames Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I don't have any problems with it.Same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stannis Eats No Peaches Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I have no problems unless they're from Slaver's Bay. I've seen people unable to spell "Meereen" correctly let alone the names of its inhabitants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
